The hit Off-Broadway musical Titanìque, the irreverent send-up of the blockbuster film Titanic, will take its final voyage at Off-Broadway's Daryl Roth Theatre June 15. Upon closing, the production will have played 1,221 performances.
The long-running parody musical,
driven by the songs of pop icon Céline Dion, premiered at the Asylum Theatre in 2022, before transferring to the Daryl Roth. Eva Price produces.
Marla Mindelle and Constantine Rousouli co-wrote the musical with production director Tye Blue. Titanìque sees Céline Dion leading a tour at the
Titanic museum, delivering her version of what really went down between
Jack and Rose, to a soundtrack of hits by the iconic singer, including
"My Heart Will
Go On," "All By Myself," and "To Love You More."
“Never in our wildest (ship of) dreams, did we expect this scrappy, fever dream of a musical would rise from the basement of a Gristedes to an award-winning three-year run at the legendary Daryl Roth Theatre,” said director and co-writerBlue in a statement. “We’re so grateful to the hundreds of artists who have been a part of this surreal voyage – bringing our joyful Celine slayfest from New York to six stages around the world. We look forward to laughing, singing, and sashaying with our incredible fans for 10 final weeks, before we say, ‘Au revoir, girlfriends’!”
